Probably will be available in the new forum, when it comes to live to everyone

There's probably something to do with incompatibilities with the changes that theymos has done to secure the forum. It is also possible that these can introduce unknown security bugs which could become a major problem.

Yes, I regret that I didn't plan for language pack support in the beginning, but now it'd require very major changes.

Just writing some code
Simple Machines actual forums uses the language packs for support in their own boards. Must work for them.
This forum is not running pure SMF. In case you missed it, I'l repeat myself.

The Simple Machines forums software has almost 40-50 different language packs available to seemlessly convert languages within the forums. Is there a technical or cost reason this hasn't been made available to the users? I'm not trying to take away from the people making money on translations of various boards but some developers don't have an unlimited budget to be paying bounties and translations services for something that I feel should be there by default.
